Favor with USCIS

'Panicking' must be where I am! Yesterday around 4:30, I realized that we had missed our fingerprint appointment on Wednesday at 3:00! I didn't put it on the calendar when it came in and my brain just won't function these days!! (It takes about month to get an appointment and then another couple of weeks to get our documents back. I'm not sure we have that much time). My clear headed husband told me to stop panicking and call CCAI. Chaunda, who is the person we contact at our agency for most things, told me to try showing up there this morning and see if they give us mercy. We prayed before going to bed and asked a friend to pray for us this morning when we dropped off Parker at school. We are thanking God this morning because we did show up at USCIS... The gentleman who greeted us at the door recognized us and said, 'you guys are going to have about 8 kids before this is over!' I guess he thinks we've been adopting each time we go down there. :) He walked us thru basically and never even said a word about the fact that we were two days late showing up! Talk about a major gift to this mommy who has major adoption brain!! Whew!!!
